While Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca are on their way to rescue Han Solo, the Millennium Falcon encounters problems while in hyperspace which causes them to enter another dimension. They come upon a mysterious floating city, and soon discover that the city is the psychic creation of the long lost Rebel hero Cody Sunn-Childe. Sunn-Childe turned his back on his violent past years ago when he discovered this powerful mystical ability, and so created his City of Dreams to live with his friends in peace away from the Galactic Civil War. Calrissian rejects Sunn-Childe's views claiming that there are times that violence is necessary and he proceeds to repair the Falcon to leave Sunn-Childe's paradise. But before he can depart a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyer attack the city after finding an opening in the dimensional fabric. Under the command of CaptainPlikk, they drain their power in their attack on the city, and though Sunn-Childe could easily demolish the fleet with his power, he decides to hold to his pacifist beliefs and allow himself and his city to be destroyed. Calrissian leaves the Imperial fleet stranded in the other dimension as punishment for destroying Sunn-Childe's dream.

The writer originally wanted Lando Calrissian to accept Cody Sunn-Childe's pacifist views, but Lucasfilm overruled him and had Marvel Comics change the ending so that Lando pointed out that Sunn-Childe's views were wrong. The writer disagreed with this change, and had his name taken off the project, choosing instead to be credited by a fake name.[2] The unedited version was later reprinted in black and white by Marvel UK.[4]

↑Writer J. M. DeMatteis asked to be credited under the pseudonym "Wally Lombego" rather than accept credit himself as a result of changes made to the story by Lucasfilm (How to do Star Wars the Marvel Way, by Glenn Greenberg, Back Issue Magazine #9).
